STATEN ISLAND, N.Y. A poll last week said that the Bridgegate scandal had lowered the boom on GOP New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie’s 2016 presidential hopes.

That’s assuming that Christie actually has a realistic shot of getting the GOP nomination three years from now.

Which isn’t a lock by any stretch, no matter how appealing Christie may be to some Republicans, Democrats and independents.

Sure, Christie got props after he went after teacher’s unions, but his bromance with Democratic President Barack Obama in the wake of Hurricane Sandy permanently irked many conservatives.

Add to that Christie’s signing a bill that lowers tuition at public colleges in New Jersey for students who lack lawful immigration status, and favors gun control.

And he caused ire when he barely mentioned candidate Mitt Romney when giving the keynote at the 2012 GOP convention; barred Romney from fundraising in New Jersey, and refused to turn over his financials to Romney veep vetting team.

Taken together, it’s not a recipe for GOP primary success, where conservatives hold sway.

“It’s going to be tough,” said Assemblyman Joe Borelli (R-South Shore). “He’s taken positions that are not favorable to lots of conservative. I’m not sure his rhetoric will play in the Midwest or the South.”

However, Borelli said, “people gravitate to leadership and to an appearance that someone can win a general election. He has that.”

That may not be the case with conservative favorites like GOP Sens. Ted Cruz, Rand Paul and Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker.

“Others are seen as not having a good chance of winning the general election,” he said.
